Sulfur Availability in Seven Southeastern Soils as Measured by Growth and Composition of White Clover
1957
Bardsley, C. E. | Jordan, Howard V.
SypnosisWhite clover, grown without added sulfur, was reduced in yield on 3 Southeastern soils at the third cutting and on all 7 soils at the fifth cutting. A seventh cutting produced extremely sulfur-deficient clover which was lower in nitrogen content and had a wider S:N ratio than clover which received sulfur. Methionine and cystine were decreased in dry matter. The nutritive value of the protein in the sulfur-deficient clover was maintained in terms of methionine but cystine was reduced.
